A quick impromptu episode on why I am choosing to not purchase the 4K Connery "steel" book box-set of DVDs that was just released.

Welcome to The Guessing Game! Some further thoughts on the Omega announcement and what it means...and what it doesn't. But the larger conversation it opens up is, how much of this guessing game is healthy for us as fans?

Season 1 finishes with a splash! I spill the beans on my favorite Bond movie. Cue the judgement.
Disclaimer: Favorite Bond movie and the BEST Bond movie are mutually exclusive things.
-
Go there or don't go there? I'll make the argument (that may not be the most popular opinion on the block) that it's time to flesh out Bond's backstory. With a new film on the horizon, and possible additional mediums to complement a film series, the opportunities to show Bond as a youth growing up, interacting his friends and parents, going to grammar school and university, and eventually his military service, are growing. Will Amazon MGM take this opportunity to finally to develop his undeveloped backstory, or will they go with the general fan opinion which is to steer clear!

Cringe! Oh those moments in Bond movies where we roll our eyes, turn our heads, or raise our eyebrows. There’s a whole bunch! Episode 10 will be my top 10 cringe worthy Bond moments over the past 25 films. And no, it won’t be all about CGI surfing and bootie slaps. Jump on my crazy train before it leaves the station!

So excited to welcome my first guest. And what better guest then veteran podcaster, YouTuber, and self-proclaimed a-hole Intrepid 007. Our man in Canada will join me for an extended discussion on the topic "Do Bond fans take themselves too seriously?". We'll dissect the trends of "seriousness" from actor to actor, era to era of the Bond series and we will give our two cents on how the marketing, licensed products, extended wait periods between films, and pressure from social media has left many fans buttoning their three-piece suit a little too tightly. This one is not for weak ears.

Join me as I spill the beans on my Bond journey, from my introduction tp Bond as a youngster, to living in my self-described Bond Bubble, to finally finding the greater Bond Community and the wonderful connections I have made over the last year. Hear my personal anecdotes about driving Cubby Broccoli's secretary crazy for months to connect with the man behind the chair, sitting behind Michael Wilson on a flight and connecting with him in our sweatpants, having a James Bond themed Bar Mitzvah with Sean Connery on the guest list, and much much more.

Title says it all. Let me tell you ALL you need to know about my visit to Dezerland Orlando, the coolest unofficial collection of Bond vehicles, memorabilia, and stuff ever. Check it out...the podcast and the place. Not to be missed!!

Wow that title has a little innuendo in it, doesn't it? Bond movies are known for grand film scores done by some of the greatest composers of our time. Very rarely do we hear popular music (regular songs) incorporated into a film's score and soundtrack. Should this continue, or should we change course and go the route of incorporating pop music excluding the title track into the film to help movie the story along?

"Barely held together by your pills and your drink.."
On this episode, we'll discuss the vices of Bond including substance and alcohol abuse, gambling, womanizing, and more. Illegal drugs like heroin and cocaine have been used as plot devices before, but it has been some time. One of the largest crises currently facing our country is the fentanyl one. We'll explore if and when future Bond films should include drugs as the villain's motivation/plan and whether we should see substance abuse and/or overdosing included in the storyline.

Who is my pick for the next 007 actor? Tune in to Episode 5 for my exciting, controversial, and perhaps unorthodox pick to be the next man don the tuxedo and recite the famous lines. This one may get you talking a bit...
-
Our favorite hero has been to dozens of countries in the film series, many of them on multiple occasions. Time we gave Italy (six times?) a break and head elsewhere? I'll offer up my top choices for new Bondian locations around the globe and why they make viable selections for the next incarnation of 007.

Join me for a father's tale of raising a young child to share the affinity and love for James Bond that my father shared with me. Ill work to bridge the generations to keep the interest alive and I'll offer some tips up and the hopes I have for my boy and his Bond journey.

Phewww...I'm more then halfway done with the new James Bond audiobooks being released by Harper Audio on Audible (an Amazon company). I can't wait to share the good, the bad, and the ugly about what I've seen (or heard rather) from the first nine books I've listened to. If you haven't given these a go yet, or even if you have, there's plenty to be said about the "clean-ups" and white-washing being done of the original text. Stay tuned for the whole picture.
